Do Not Need this info for Spring (but still copy these lines to your Target page for now)
Primer design results for pNIC-Bsa4 cloning (list seqeunces of all of your ~40 nt long primers):
(link to DNA Works output text file - that should be saved in your Google Docs folder after you did the primer design protocol)
-- Ask a mentor, Dr. B, or a fellow researcher -how to link a GDocs file if you are not sure how to.

Primer design results for 'tail' primers (this is just 2 sequences):
